A professor at Purdue University was taken into custody in connection with drug-related accusations and allegedly propositioning women.
Sergey Macheret, 65, was arrested Wednesday after the Lafayette Police Department’s weeks-long investigation into several complaints of a “suspicious male approaching women,” according to Indianapolis news station Fox 59.
The department’s investigation, which began in December, led them to Macheret, per the outlet. A plainclothes officer reportedly managed to get information that caused police to conduct a traffic stop, leading to his arrest. Details of the information police had were not shared.
